【Android】屏幕尺寸的表示

1. 单位

- px(pixel): 普通的像素点描述，位图中的一个颜色点（RGBA或者YUV）

- dip(device independent pixels): 设备独立像素。

- dp: 与dip一样。

- pt(point): 标准长度单位。1pt = 1.0 / 72 (in)。

- sp(scaled pixel): 用于字体显示。

- in(inch): 英寸

- mm(millimeter): 毫米

2. 屏幕密度

默认屏幕密度：low = 120; medium = 160; high = 240

3. 屏幕单位的换算
